Isolated by the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii is the most petroleum-dependent U.S. state. Well, desperate times call for desperate measures.
Re:Show HN: Coffeeopia – discover and discuss specialty coffee on Wednesday October 06, 2021 @12:33PM (#28775077)
I've seen several projects like this pop up recently and all of them were mostly focused on a particular coffee roast. The problem with that is that it gets outdated very fast - typical roast exists for a month or so. What I like here is the focus on roasters and coffee shops, as they last longer.

MacMillian could very well win a second nobel prize for photoredox chemistry somewhere down the line too.

Yea, it made HIPAA compliance easy.
Re:Regulators should treat stablecoins like banks on Wednesday August 11, 2021 @12:09PM (#28143819)
But if they were treated like real banks, one stable coin would be even less backed by real cash than right now.

Perhaps one of the greatest Arabic, Middle Eastern, and Islamic contributions to world literature, the many stories of the Arabian Nights, in their various forms and genres, have influenced literature, music, art, and cinema, and continue to do so until our present day.
Re:Audi announces end of combustion A4, A6 and A8 models on Friday January 22, 2021 @12:42PM (#25874013)
I suppose the other makers in VAG will follow since it's cars on the same platforms of many other cars like the VW Passat.
Facebook doesn't care about any PC Gamer on this website. Get that through your mind. They only care about the Facebook crowd who play casual games.
Re:The University Is Like a CD in the Streaming Age on Monday June 22, 2020 @02:17PM (#23603671)
I don't think they are like CDs. You interact with lots of people on campus, you have lots of laboratory classes, and much more.
I'm not surprised.

But this sure surprised me:Pierrick Gaudry, from Lorraine University, was able to break the Ethereum-based smart contract encryption in only 20 minutes using nothing more than an average desktop computer and free, publicly available software. Gaudry estimates more modern equipment and sophisticated techniques could crack the encryption in only 10 minutes."

I have the same issue. Can't use inside my Preact component running on a https site.
Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @03:16PM (#9140393)
Thanks for your comment. I agree that the semantic of this can be misinterpreted.

It should have said "1.00 x the speed of v3". I'll change the text in my next run of this.

I'm currently working on a new benchmark test of promises and callbacks. All in the name of performance :)

Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @12:40PM (#9139126)
If you want, you can run these test yourself: https://github.com/5orenso/javascript-module-performance

I'll then present the results on a nice webpage :)

Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @12:38PM (#9139116)
You're welcome!

It's good to start with a solid module boilerplate, but you should always consider readability before performance if you don't need the performance.

Code maintenance is important :)

Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @12:08PM (#9138845)
I've made some changes to the scripts and pushed all to a github repo: https://github.com/5orenso/javascript-module-performance

Please test it and it will post the results to my API which was made in a hurry :)

Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @11:13AM (#9138428)
Thanks :) This is a splendid idea. I'm working on this now to be able to capture the results.

I'll update the blog post with the repo.

Re:Node.js module performance on Tuesday March 03, 2015 @10:55AM (#9138285)
Yes, version 1 is using closures which creates a new function every time the function is called. I've seen this pattern in many places and even used it myself :)

Great work!

In newer versions of the V8 engine the global opt is not de-optimized.

Thanks for testing! -sorenso-
